Teenager reveals what it is like to date her biological father

A teenager has gone viral after revealing what it's like to date her biological father - and opening up about their plans to get married.

In an interview with The Cut, the 18-year-old woman explained how she established a relationship with her father, who is 18 years her senior, after being estranged for 12 years.

The pair met again when the woman was 17 years old, and a phenomenon known as "consensual incest" took place. It can occur when a parent and child have been estranged for a long period of time and reunite as adults.

The teen revealed that her biological mother doesn't know about her relationship with her father and added that she doesn't care that the pair can't be legally married.

"I want it to represent our uniqueness, so we aren't doing a white wedding," she said.

"The color scheme is black and purple, and we are both going to wear Converse tennis shoes. He's wearing jeans and a nice dress shirt. He says he's not wearing a bow tie, but it's my wedding and I am saying that he is.

"My grandmother and grandfather - my fiancé’s parents - are going to attend and my grandpa will give me away.

"The tables will have bouquets of trees without leaves to represent our marriage, which will be like a growing tree. My dress will be black."

News of the pair's upcoming wedding has gone viral on social media, with people flocking to express their outrage and hope that the teen reconsiders marrying her biological father.

Per News.com.au, one Facebook user said: "This is so wrong, so so so wrong. I wish someone would step in and save this poor girl."

A second added: "No, no, no. I hope to God she doesn't go through with this wedding and she comes to her senses."

According to an article in the Guardian, Genetic Sexual Attraction (GSA) occurs in about 50 percent of cases of children who reunite with estranged parents as adults.
